Graduation Behind. Dedication Ahead.
Innovative Industrial Design graduate with a passion for conceptual development and product storytelling. Skilled in using Fusion 360 and Shapr3D as tools to visualize complex ideas, I seek a role where I can contribute fresh perspectives and creative problem-solving to new-generation consumer products.
Education
B.A. in International Studies—International Business, University of California, San Diego, U.S., 2023
M.A. in Industrial Design (In Progress), Academy of Art University, San Francisco, U.S.,
Capstone Project: "Relo" — ReLO: Designed a desktop recycling system that turns 3D-printing waste into reusable filament through a sealed multi-stage workflow (shredding, softening, extrusion, and spool automation). Focused on material behavior, usability, and safety standards for small studios and hobby makers.
Coursework emphasizes human-centered product design, material systems, and prototyping, with additional training in digital fabrication, ergonomics, and CMF development.
Experience
Industrial & Product Design Intern
Consumer Electronics Company— Mobile & Wearables Group, China, Summer · 2024
Worked on an unreleased wearable / phone-accessory project from early concept to complete proposal.
Generated concept sketches, 3D form studies, and usability mockups for daily-wear scenarios.
Built CAD models (Fusion 360 / Shapr3D) for design review and mechanical discussion.
Prepared KeyShot renders and presentation boards for weekly critiques with design leads.
Collaborated with engineers and project managers to balance aesthetics, ergonomics, and manufacturability under tight timelines.
Independent Product & 3D Printing Designer
San Francisco, CA · 2023–Present
Run a small 3D-printing and product design practice, focusing on functional objects and prototypes.
Design, model, and fabricate parts using FDM printers (PLA, PETG, TPU), optimizing prints for strength, surface, and support removal.
Develop self-initiated projects, such as ReLO (a desktop 3D-printing recycler) and small-batch home objects for online platforms (e.g., seasonal décor, utility tools).
Manage the whole pipeline from idea to physical output: cost estimation, print settings, finishing, and packaging.
Founder & Content Creator — Sneaker Review Channel “Jamejobs尚帝”
Online · 2015–Present
Test and review performance sneakers, focusing on fit, cushioning, and on-court experience.
Script, film, and edit long-form and short-form content that explains complex feelings and performance in an accessible language.
Built long-term skills in storytelling, visual framing, and communicating subtle physical sensations—skills that now inform product and furniture design narratives.
Skills
Projects
ReLO — Desktop Plastic Reuse System (Graduate Capstone)
Designed a sealed recycling system that turns 3D-printing waste into reusable filament for home users and small studios, focusing on safe airflow, user workflow, and small-scale material processing.
Zen Chair — Cross-Leg Meditation Chair
Created a meditation chair that embeds a starting ritual and stable cross-leg posture into its wooden Z-profile, making it easier for users to begin and maintain daily stillness.
Summit Cart — Follow & Dock Robotic Carrier
Developed a concept for a robotic cart that follows users, carries gear over rough terrain, and docks directly into a Jeep’s rear storage, smoothing the transition between walking, carrying, and loading.
Personal qualities
Strong ability to describe physical sensations and user experience in clear language.
Curious, hands-on designer who learns by building and testing.
Comfortable moving between sketching, CAD, workshop prototyping, and presentation.
Collaborative and reflective, open to critique and iteration over time.
Interests
Furniture and everyday tools that support real daily rituals (calm, focus, movement).
Additive manufacturing, recycling systems, and small-scale production.
Sneakers, basketball movement, and how the body interacts with products.
Electronic music and DJ culture as a lens for understanding rhythm, atmosphere, and experience design.
